Judging by the crowd on Kimmel last week when MIA was on, I'm going to go with yes, people are on crack.
YIKES looks like i'll be waiting to get this one off eMusic… tis amazing what impact a couple "kwel" bloggers can have. witness Annie who is perfectly described as Kylie Minoque for the indie set. were it not for a lift of a Basement Jaxx's loop, i'm guessin the impact would have been minimal.
Must agree with Smackie and Pollard…I heard her kcrw session and found it to be quite *blah*..yet every Coachella review talks about her set and people begging for an encore..so maybe I'm wrong…

As a side note, Cartel will be on Woxy's Live Lounge Friday May 20th…do tune in :p
Malkmus will also be on KEXP on 5/24…
I'm really enjoying the MIA album. I heard that she was the only second stage act to play an encore at Coachella. For those that like her, they're going to do a piece on her on npr tomorrow morning.
